hey im a maldivian..i just found a green mosquito up on the roof of my house..O.O i have never heard of a green mosquito before..i just googled it and realised its something very rare..by the time i got back to take a photo it wasnt there..=/ is that a natural species or is that a mutation or something..why does nobody ever talk about them?

I have been bitten the last few nights. The areas are shoulder, underarm and thigh. Bigger than a usual mosquito bite. And much more painful. I just found a bright green mosquito in my room. Now I know the culprit. I never saw or heard of one before. What do I do about keeping them away?

Hello everybody,I also found a green mosquito today. I can't tell u about it scientificaly, coz I'm not a student of science. But as i found it. I searched about on net n i found this discusion. So, I thought, I also put this information here.

One more thing, I am from delhi, n i live near karol bagh. So, if any body want it for reserch work, then can mail me on bcarya.delhi@hotmail.comI don't know, how I could preserve it for long time. So, plz. contact a.s.a.p.Thankx.

Hey everyone, just got bitten by a bug that at least looked like a green mosquito to me, and it had absolutely the same buzzing sound, which I'd always recognize! Since it bit me, and I have a little lump that itches like usual at the spot, it must be a female.. At least I think!

I heard it twice, first time somewhere behind me, then waited and listened.. Second time I heard it, it was already landing on my arm so I smacked it down immediately, then went searching for green mosquitos on google out of curiosity.. I took some pictures of what I could recover from the body - here's one of them.

Also: the mosquito season just started here so this is the first or second mosquito I saw this year(this being the first green one I saw in my life), there aren't any other buzzing around yet..
